I actually first heard the name through the TV show Supernatural. One of the demons, a very important one, was named Azazel. Led me to research the name. I found it pretty interesting. Then more recently it was the name of a demon-like character in The Binding Of Isaac: Rebirth, which is one of my favorite games.

It's not that weird. People have used the names of deities of ancient civilizations for their names purely based on what they represent. I happen to be a film student exploring the Horror genre, and so have chosen to use the name "Azazel Productions" to represent my work. That is the reason I changed my name to what I did. Few people call the devil Azazel anyway as far as I can tell.

I really just wasn't sure how to answer you at first, religious questions tend to make me a bit nervous.

Oh, sweet! And nah, you didn't. If anything, you clarified things. And why "thank you?" Well, I've always thought that people should be a lot more thankful of stuff. I used to keep "mercí" on my phone, but I picked "shokran" because of how beautiful Arabic is. I can read it too, so why not? =P
